Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, and who have written and continue to write toil;

saying: The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat.

For they bind heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.

For not even those who are circumcised keep the Law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may boast in your flesh.

Is not this the fast that I have chosen: To loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?
